Amend Constitution to explicitly ban corporations and other liability-shielding business structures from being considered to have Constittuional rights

Allow government regulators a stipend and a job in human resources and ban them from taking any private sector job that is not far removed from any business sectors that they regulated in their government position for a period of 4 years.

Amend the Constitution to set a lower limit on the reserve ratio of private banks to 40%.

This implicitly gets rid of corporate income tax. It's stupid that entities other than individual humans were ever considered to have Constitutional rights.

It doesn't implictly get rid of anything. Corporations are legal fictions, and are subject to whatever legalities that legislators want to come up for them.

It's silly to think taxation of an organization and Constitutional rights are somehow inseparable.

1) Single Payer HC

2) Term limits

3) Abolish Lobbyist and groups

Term limits are not necessary because members of Congress must be regularly re-elected. If they are not doing a good job in office, we can simply vote for someone else.

Career politicians have no place in Washington. They are also subject to corruption, and the influence of lobbying.

Career politicians should be valued for their experience. If we regularly fill a Congressional office with a newcomer, we will lose the valuable experience on-the-job that person can offer in government.

My three are:

(1) Eliminate Social Security and replace it with individual retirement accounts.

(2) Eliminate the Department of Education.

(3) Simplify the income tax to a flat 15% rate with an individual exemption for each member of the family up to the poverty level. All tax credits, deductions, and incentives would be eliminated, including mortgage interest, investment loss, charitable giving, student loan interest, oil and gas exploration, etc.

First I would like cannabis legalized. It will help create jobs and the money made can help the middle class and infrastructure of the country.

Maybe, but widespread cannabis use would lower productivity. People work and think slower when they are "stoned".

Single payer health care. Improved primary education. Decriminalization of drugs. And the ability of foreign people to enter USA without having to apply for a visa.

So you support school choice and taking money out of the Union thugs hands and directing it to the students? Nice!Get Big Brother out of our Healthcare.Get Big Brother out of our Bodies.Get Big Brother out of our Wallets.

There is nothing inherently wrong with teacher's unions. Then what's the point of a union?

i think teachers unions (as well as all other public-sector trade unions) should effectively be turned into political action committees and serve the collective interests of their members that way.

i disagree when we're talking about public schools. i'm not saying that public-sector trade unions shouldn't exist, but they should be castrated.

I agree with you on 2 and 3 (and 2's benefit is self-evident to everyone), but how would you accomplish 2? Why a single payer healthcare system?

Single payer system is the most efficient for the US. As a matter of practicality, single payer is definitely the most efficient.

I sorta agree with this. But it's a move in the exact opposite direction of where we should be heading ideologically. Putting the state in charge of so much at such a fundamentally individualistic level is ... a terrible idea.

1.) Income tax abolished (bye IRS!)
2.) End the Fed (bye Fed!)
3.) All drugs legalized (bye DEA & cartels!)

That would be one hell of an amazing start to give the people of this country their rights back.

Yep!

Nice post!

1) Political campaign reform, with the intention of eliminating lobbyist / wealth influence in politics. Harsh spending limits, only individuals allowed to donate, donations limited to ~$100, national/state/district funding for campaigns in proportion to voter donations.

2) Vastly improved primary AND secondary education - double or triple current funding (pay for it by reduction in defence spending), spent on increasing teacher salaries to attract first-class academics, improving school buildings and resources, access to sports, arts and music, vocational training for less academic children - ultimately aim to make private schooling obsolete, thus levelling the playing field for poor and rich children.

3) Reduce income, corporation and sales taxes in favour of wealth, land and inheritance taxes - penalise hoarding, incentivise investment, reduce inequality.
